It features a special track of prose to Melanie, which is followed by the Rumba that Thomas Bevans wrote for her (Melanie's Rumba.) She loves it! The other songs are Waltz, Tango, Viennese Waltz, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Cha Cha, Samba, Rumba, Paso Doble (Spanish Gypsy format), Jive, and a special Waltz with a feel for Theater Arts (as well as Standard). This last Waltz was used by Nick Kosavitch and Katrina Marks in their new show and was performed by them in Holland in November 1996. Just like the earlier CDs, Volume IV features the unique practice tracks for each dance. Each practice track has 10 seconds of silence followed by 90 seconds of music, with a fade at the end. Great for dancing your rounds!
